Vol C Life Support
Serially upgrading discs in readynas. Replaced disc 1 without issue. After synchronising disc 1, moved on to disc 2, but was unable to free it from the carrier, so replaced it in the same slot, and moved on to disc 3, not realising that disc 2 should now be synchronised even though it was the same disc being replaced. Readynas now reads Vol C life support. I have taken no further action since this. What should I now do?

I'd contact support. They will need to charge. Data Recovery is quite expensive, but per-incident support might be enough to get the volume back.

Hello Ali_Nicol,
Welcome to the community!
This message appears when volume cannot be mounted because of disk failures.
Please contact support center as this may need to be fixed by a higher tier.
